Data-constrained 3D modeling of the 2011 August 4 flare reveals strong polarity asymmetry in electron precipitation driven by magnetic mirror ratios, with turbulent scattering and Coulomb collisions modulating the energy-dependent flux.
3D MHD modeling of candle-flame solar flares reveals Y-points do not coincide with apparent cusp tips and observed downflow speeds underestimate reconnection Alfvén speeds by 2-10x.
